Only one out. plus, I would think the running is a bit slippery.

[zambonir]

suspended right? I think we got a lot of hours left before they call it either way, even if it becomes official.

[Patchmk88]

Big time runs there.

[EDmuch]

I think MLB will do everything possible to get at least 6 innings in to make if official

[BostonRoss]

That's what I thought, but I wasn't sure. Big disadvantage that the Phillies are going to get to Houston late unless they can complete the game.

Thankfully the decision is out of the Nats hands now that the game has started

[Patchmk88]

Only have to get through 5, right?

[EDmuch]

Yes five full innings

[zambonir]

yes, 5. But I'm sure they won't call the game quickly. Brewers are entitled to that.

[kikutaro]

Ball in dirt (91. mph sinker)
In play, out(s) (91.8 mph sinker)

J.T. Realmuto grounds out, second baseman Luis Garcia to first baseman Joey Meneses.

[BostonRoss]

Yes five full innings

Unless the Phillies blow the lead before then

[EDmuch]

That is ok. Four runs. Now put Nats down 1-2-3 to complete to complete four innings & get to the fifth inning.

[BostonRoss]

If the Nationals don't score in the 4th, the Phillies should swing at everything in the fifth.

I don't know what Wheeler's pitch limit is today, but it looks like he is going to have a low pitch count today no matter how well he's pitching.

[EDmuch]

BR, I agree.
